My trip down to Henderson, Kentucky was a real joy!! \u00a0The Henderson Camera Club folks were fantastic and getting to be with my dear friend Chuck Summers was a joy as well! \u00a0I spoke Friday night a couple of times Saturday and Sunday morning. \u00a0On Saturday morning went out to the slough, much like a swamp and chased down tree frogs!!! \u00a0The wind was blowing pretty hard but it would lull just long enough to get off a shot or two and I was thrilled with my take, well 10% of it when he wind settled down!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It as my first chance to give the new \u00a0200mm Micro Nikkor manual focus lens a field test. \u00a0I had forgotten just how shallow the depth is with such a long micro lens, but it performed admirably!!I can’t wait to go our and find some other macro subject this fall!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Thanks very much to my new photo friends in Henderson and of course to Bonita and Chuck Summers for inviting me and hosting me!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Blessings,<\/p>\n
